Hmm, maybe I should have looked at some more pictures before making such
a broad statement. Anyway, some Bel Air convertibles *do* have a yellow
or goldish grill. You may want to try and see how it looks? Gold
chrome tiles would be quite a bit harder to gather than regular chrome,
however :(

| Hi (...) Huh? The models on the reference pictures I downloaded from the internet (approx. 40) and the 2 Chevys I saw for real didn't have a yellow/gold grille.
